IS ANXIETY RUINING MY RELATIONSHIP?

Question

So basically within the last few months I have had horrible anxiety and hypochondria and have basically been telling my boyfriend a lot of my feelings and all. Somethings may sound ridiculous but that’s how fears and anxiety is, if it’s about a bump I found on me or just worrying in general, he was very open to listening at first but now it’s gone on for a few months and he kinda doesn’t want to hear about it and I know he thinks I’m crazy. I even have like a fear of getting pregnant even though I have an IUD so we’ve been having sex less also. I just feel like I’m driving him away with my anxiety because sometimes he gets upset about me talking about my worries etc, I just feel comfortable talking to him. I don’t want to drive him away or make myself look super crazy even though sometimes the worries I have are super irrational. What do I do?
Give me anxiety tips or things I can do, and also I want to talk to him about this like formally, do I apologize? I don’t know what to say.... 
therapy? natural ways?

Answer

I suggest therapy. Especially if it’s starting to effect your relationship with your boyfriend. Cbd oil may help as but you should do your own research on that before using it.

Answer

I suffer from anxiety and hypochondria. I've had numerous blood tests done to make sure nothing is wrong and sometimes that can be helpful, but a lot of time it's not enough to stop paranoia as that is a strong feeling. 
I would suggest therapy, reading up and practising mindfulness, focus on staying present and in the moment, try and find some group CBT online you can join for free... Yoga... Exercise... Gym... A daily walk. There is no magic bullet or fix unfortunately. You will need to introduce loads of small helpful and healthy things over time to improve your life and lessen your anxiety. If you have friends or family you can talk to, do so but make sure you are not overwhelming them

Answer

I suffer from the same thing, it’s not ruining my marriage though. Sit down with him and talk, face to face. Tell him how you’re feeling, and ask him to tell you how he feels. After that, figure out a way you guys can work together to make your anxiety better, and not as extreme. After you do that, just breathe. Don’t beat yourself up at all. Anxiety is a mind game that is SO hard to win. Try journaling, and writing down your thoughts. Avoid caffeinated drinks, and sugary drinks. Stretch in the morning when you wake up, and stay as positive as you can through the days. 
As for you, use a grounding technique for anxiety. When you feel yourself coming upon an attack, breathe through your nose and out your mouth. Look around you and find 5 things you can see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell, and 1 emotion you can feel. 
Constantly tell yourself that you’ve been through it before, and that it’s going to pass. It’s not going to physically harm you, just scare you, but it’s going to pass. 
I recommend a weighted blanket as well! 
I hope this helps you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
